A big congratulations to Alex Smart for wrapping up the unfinished work of posting the Unaccounted airmen threads that the late Henk Welting had started. Thank you Alex for all the work.
1. The complete list of the Unaccounted threads by year is available at http://www.rafcommands.com/henk-welt...-thread-index/
I decided to pull some stats from the forum to see what this work had entailed.
The initial threads were posted on the old forum - starting Feb 1940, the threads can be found on this vbulletin software.
The first thread was started on 8 January 2007, and the last thread was started on 18 October 2019.
-It is 4667 days from the start date to the end date, end date included.
-Or 12 years, 9 months, 11 days including the end date.

The numbers are approximate but are probably 99% as close to accurate. And do not include the older archive.
Big thanks to all - especially the top posters here.
